We made more progress on the Porsche this weekend. The heads have been removed and are waiting to be shipped off, the oil cooler is already out for cleaning, and soon we'll drop off the engine sheet metal for powder coating.

So far, other than the snapped head stud, things look good. We have found evidence that someone has been inside this engine before, but it doesn't look like they caused any damage.

Our ARP exhaust studs just arrived, and hopefully the cylinder head studs will follow shortly.

Actually I was in DeLand, but not at the autocross. I did wave as I drove by.

The car (and its engine) are currently at a friend's place not too far from downtown, and I stopped by to clean some stuff. Between that and plans to visit family later on Sunday, I had to skip the autocross.

Yeah, I also thought that using the Subaru to carry the 911 engine was kind of funny. Tell you what, though, the Impreza will easily carry all kinds of stuff. At one point it held almost everything needed for the Porsche's engine rebuild, including the heads, cam towers, new ARP hardware, clutch, resurfaced flywheel, engine sheet metal and more.
